Ultimate recovery

"Bought this for post micro needling Seems to be nice gentle moisturiser. I used this with the cleanser recommended to use with it for microneedling. Skin stayed balanced no redening or outbreaks . Will use again after my next session"

— Erika L. (5/5)

Love this moisturiser

"This moisturiser is light for an oil based cream, only issue I have is it’s not available in a larger size"

— Rachel B. (4/5)

A must for dry skin

"Love this, its quite a small bottle but I’ve used it quite daily as my skins needed it, a favourite of mine now, I try to use it sparingly as feel my skin needs it but its such a small bottle"

— Leanne D. (5/5)

Skin saviour

Great for skin slugging

"This is a lovely thick cream which I use after two of Medik8 serums at night to slug my skin and give a huge boost of healing and moisturising overnight. Too rick for day wear."

— Sarah (5/5)

Amazing

"Wonderful hydrating texture. The formula is perfect when you are aiming to repair and improve the appearance of skin. I noticed a difference in 5 days"

— Rhiannon M. (5/5)

Favorite !!!

"This cream is absolutely amazing, especially after professional treatments. I use it after the Geneo Pro treatment (hydro peel) as well as after microneedling, and it always leaves my skin feeling deeply hydrated and soothed. I also love using it as part of my daily skincare routine because it provides excellent hydration and keeps my skin looking healthy. The only downside is the size. The jar contains only 30 ml, so it doesn’t last very long. Other than that, it’s my absolute favorite, and I can’t imagine my skincare routine without it!"

— KJP (5/5)

— Sandra T. (5/5)

Wonderful Product

"Great to have a product that does what it says on the tin!"

Q&A

Can I layer this with the Crystal Retinal? If so, which would be applied first?
Hi Laura - absolutely! You would apply Ultimate Recovery after your Crystal Retinal.
Hello. Could you please explain me . Can I use this cream two times per week or more? I have dry skin , wrinkles and my age 53. Or how to correct use it?
Hi Oksana, thanks for your question. You can either apply Ultimate Recovery as and when you feel your skin needs further nourishment or, you can apply every day - noting this is a very rich texture and a little goes a long way. 'After cleansing in the morning and evening, apply an almond sized amount of Ultimate Recovery where necessary. Leave to absorb before applying sunscreen. Use more often if required. ' Thanks, Medik8.
Do you use this under a moisturiser or instead of? And can it be used around the eye area?
Hi Johanna, thank you for your question. Ultimate Recovery is rich enough to be used as a standalone moisturiser. It can be applied all over the face, but we do advise avoiding the eyelids and too close to the water-line, to avoid migration of the product into your eye. I hope this helps. Thanks, Medik8.
Can I use this cream if a have oily skin and now it’s irritated by treatments? Thank you.
Hi Yuliia, thank you for your question. Please could I ask you to email us directly on hello@medik8.com so that we can offer more tailored advice. Thanks, Medik8.
